I think O'Rielly's rents the hydraulic tool ??
My brother borrowed me his fancy one back in July - but after much consternation and a couple dozen under the car strategy sessions I decided to try and replace the entire front to back line this evening. Not so much fun laying on my back with the car on jack stands and a welded exhaust system in the way, but 3 hours later the new line is installed along with the new flex line in the rear that everyone says should be replaced anyways. Glad I chose this route.

Need to button things up and make final connections/adjustments/etc. so I can bleed the entire system. Progress pics to follow tomorrow to show what I did with the one clamp that is bolted to the top of the frame above the lower control arm forward mount and not accessible.

Thanks all for the suggestions.
